Abstract: The naming task was employed to find out whether the rule of third tone sandhi would have impact on the derivation of phonology in real and pseudo word context respectively. The results showed: 1) fluent Mandarin speakers have sense of third tone sandhi. And the third tone sandhi took place in both contexts. 2)The third tone sandhi affected the derivation of phonology. And the way it affected varies with different kinds of word context. The analysis on reading error provided some evidences to support the discussion

Key words: third tone sandhi, underlying tone, surface tone, tone fixation
